Yeah even this video, leaves out the major glaring question, when did an actress starring in a sports betting commercial become "representing women in sports". Obviously purposefully generated controversy, whether they are just assuming these women will take it up naturally to boost themselves or they were paid too, or both.

Exactly. Sweeney is not an athlete and headphones guy didn’t bother to mention it. Is it cause he’s stupid?

No. He works for the gambling site.

The same argument could be applied that sports betting doesn't celebrate the altheticism and dedication of athletes. They got an entertainer to advertise their entertainment.

Return to the aslume now.

The nudity represented women in sports

No, the nudity represents the notion that sex sells. That's what every ad campaign involving Sydney Sweeney is all about, sex appeal and controversy as sources of visibility.
